It’s an amazing opportunity to visit Intex Sri Lanka. What brought me here is the global show – with participation from Chinese, South Asian companies, and excellent raw material sourcing opportunities. My association comprises the brand heads of leading international brands with offices in South Asia, as well as large-scale domestic brands from India and their buying offices. I have come with a delegation of brand heads, and we are excited to explore the exhibition and take this forward.

Events such as InMac drive this transformation by connecting Sri Lanka with global technology providers and strengthening confidence in the region's manufacturing potential.

Congratulations to INTEX and INMAC for bringing this show to Sri Lanka once again. INTEX is very important, especially in the current situation of global economic challenges, geopolitics and changing consumer behaviour. It is a great place to network, meet buyers and explore different fabrics, machinery and trims available locally and from various places. It is very important that we all participate. We welcome and thank Intex-InMac for coming to Sri Lanka, and it is great to have INTEX year after year.

It has been happening for a decade and we love to be a part of it. Intex Sri Lanka 2025 has been a great success — we had 40+ delegates participate in the event, and they were really happy with the experience. We also take this event regularly in our calendar year, and I would like to request textile people, whoever wants to grow their business, to participate in Intex shows, grow their business, and take benefit of it.

Hon. Sunil Handunnetti

Intex Sri Lanka has, over the past decade, grown into far more than just a sourcing exhibition, it is now a platform where ideas meet action, where Sri Lanka connects with the world, and where our apparel sector’s strengths are on full display. This year’s edition has shown how innovation, sustainability, and collaboration can redefine the future of manufacturing in our region. As we look ahead, the Ministry will continue to support initiatives like Intex that bring global buyers and local producers together, helping Sri Lanka maintain its position as the hub of textile sourcing in South Asia.

Intex has earned a reputation as a renowned platform bringing together the global supply base in one place. Even with the current global dynamics and changing tariffs across different retail regions, it offers an excellent opportunity for suppliers to meet diverse product requirements. Intex is truly a one-stop shop solution and presents a massive opportunity for Sri Lankan suppliers as well as the entire region.
